Hi -
Frank Schulenberg did an interesting analysis that looked at the
proportion of people creating a new account on Wikipedia who go on to
make an edit within 10 days. It was surprising to see that Hindi
Wikipedia had a very different rate that some other projects (see
below). Can anyone share an explanation?
English 31
German 35
Russian 26
Swedish 30
Hindi 9
FYI - Frank did this for a new initiative starting in October:
